IDEAS FOR RYZOM

Bonjour à tous.

Certains d'entre nous jouent depuis des années maintenant, ont fait le tour du jeu depuis un moment.
Et pour ne rien cacher, se connectent par amour du jeu mais ne font presque plus rien à part discuter.
Pourquoi ne changerions nous pas ça en nous permettant de reset une branche ou plusieurs selon nos envies et nos motivations?

Cela permettrait peut etre de nous remotiver à former des groupes de chasses comme avant,
aider un nouveau joueur en chassant avec lui, nous remotiver à pexer une branche que nous avons aimé monter par exemple.
Bien sur ne pas recommencer un niveau juste pour le plaisir non plus.

Peut etre mettre en place certaines récompenses ( visuelles ou autres ) pour chaque branche reset terminées?
Quelque chose qui pourrait nous motiver à recommencer une branche en conservant notre personnage principal.

Et pour ne pas creer un " fossé " entre les nouveaux joueurs et les anciens qui repexeront une branche, ne permettre de le faire qu'une seule fois avec une récompense à la clé?

Pour le heal :
Pourquoi ne pas remettre le design des ailes visible pour tous?

Pour la magie :
Inventer des nouveaux design de sorts, ou un bonus en plus?

Pour les tank :
Une arme consommable trouvable nulle part sur Atys ?
Ou nous permettre d'utiliser des couts de stanza plus haut sans passer par la "destruction de l'arme" ?

Pour les foreurs :
Un bonus concentration considérable qui leur permettrait d'extraire plus de matières par source?
Ou une pioche trouvable nulle part sur Atys ( genre, pioche de faction? )

Et enfin pour les craft : Un plus gros bonus de réussite.

Great idea!

Huhu,

I had the chance to discuss parts of this idea before with my dear Rev;

overall I am in favor of something like this, but in order for me to support it wholly, it needs to be done in a very neat way,; sure many of us have mastered many stuffs, and something extra is always nice; but let's not forget about the newer players, we were once of them, to whom already mastering a skill is a mountain high enough to climb.

As I said in our private discussion:

I am in favor of the idea; but I am against ANY and all bonuses it can have to PvP/OP areas; I am against "unlocking" new stanzas, or reducing credits, or anything of the sort which can give a TREMENDOUS advantage to a player or group of; I think the idea that "all x being equal, y has a chance" (ofc a veteran has a natural advantage due to her/his veteran status) is how things should remain.

A new player who just finished her master, and needs to do a tons of other basic master in order to even be able to compete in some sort of PvP fight; if we allow that by resetting ur trees you gain something stupendous; has no chance at all in competing; she/he will be alienated. And I can't emphasize this enough.

So for me the ideal would be to either give some sort of shiny/flashy armors to the players that elect to go for this route; like it was done before; give them a super unique and awesome title; and/or allow them to customize something that exemplifies and shows this accomplishment.

This is it for the fight+magic skill section;. Now when it comes to digging and/or crafting; I like the ideas proposed so far; I would add that for example with master forest forager, if u redo the forest mastery; in that area, (make it area specific that is) you gain a bonus equal to that of using an egiros pick; that doesnt sound unfair to me; and it's something that could make things interesting for those of us that are tired of digging in the same areas again and again for no dig xp again...(which SUCKS).

About crafting, again, I like the suggestion, give a success chance bonus, similar to what is done using consumable items. (the bonus will be stackable with the consumable use).

Looking forwards for newer and hopefully more creative ideas than my own, on definately one of the most comment-worthy "ideas" topics evahhh! (Yay rev;3)

Star

Hm, about magic: drain could be made ballanced very weak magic only used for muncham.

Maybe more rites also could be fun.

Traveling system of NH in my opinion only annoying, specialy for newbies since players give 36 products at once.

Maybe not for here but some purchable skin would support the game and could be fun too.

Now these things i remember id advice in this case

I'm with Northstar in this but overall the ideas sound good to me and they would spice up the game for many.
But since not all of us have the time to put 12 hours a day in this game or were lucky enough to find Ryzom years ago, gaining an advantage from double mastering would make some people lose their motivation when it comes to attending OPs and PvP.

We need people to gain motivation, not lose it, and as for some of us the training itself takes a lot of time due to a limited playing time per day, seeing some having advantages from purely having no RL would seem too much and kill the spirit for any training. Let alone joining fights with players who are known to have bonuses from double mastering.

Titles would do no harm and we do love titles here, don't we :P

+10000 revvynours :)

That sounds really cool! I've played quite a few games where once you reached the level cap you were able to restart from level one with an achievement or bonus. I think it would be a great addition to Ryzom.

+ !

You can already get this if you know where to get the files from. ;o)

You're right. You can get it. But it's only for you. If others don't get the files, they aren't gonna see it.

What makes me more... sad is: Why did we should restart griding a master to get a thing we get in the past? Cuz yeah... This animation was used, a long time ago.

I like the idea... But, getting something NEW would be better.

A new animation, maybe? But not an old one.

Cuz... about nuke, it's gonna be the same: Grind it to get fire animation... That kinda sucks.

And... Does it mean we're gonna get more Magic, melee, dig and crafting points? We already get tons what we can't use... :)

So... +1 for the idea, but... Ryzom need new things, not old thing we lost and then... " RESTART AND GET A REWARD! "

All animations are in the client data files. I would see it as fairly complex for my client to tell the server that I am using the phoenix heal animation (but not the phoenix fire animation) and have the server tell the other clients that are in/near the same location to use the phoenix animation when I heal rather than the column.

The animations are probably a bad place to suggest modification since (as we know) there are always people who liked the old one.

Rather than "reset", I would be all in favor of a new skill (developed via Lore, of course) that anyone interested (and meeting criterea) could take up an master. (Perhaps a new magic tree that becomes accessible once you are a Celestial Guardian or Avatar of Destruction. I have no idea what it might be, but that sort of thing could be added.)

Encyclopedia 2 was a high priority immediately post merge but have not been able to get any info on it other than was set aside for a while while other higher priority projects were being completed.  This was a counter to running fame to 100 as in E1, you had to have Fame at 42 to complete one of the rites.

As for the "starting over, the original concept was that you could have kids, whereby the children would start out with an edge resulting from parents accomplishments.

Restart and get a reward ?  Yes, that's what happened at merge ... option a) keep ya skillz... option b) restart and get rewards (NPC armor).

One thing I'd like to see is bonuses for completing a major branch ...

CRAFTING

LA - a new set of LA craft plans
MA - a new set of MA craft plans
HA - a new set of HA craft plans
Buckler / Shields - As above

Not so much for increased stats that would affect PvP but say the ability to pick a color, a new style or if a stat bonus, maybe +10% durability ... even a small  lightness advantage wouldn't be a great impact..

1H Weaps - 1)  A visual effect on all 1H weaps .... kinda of mixed mind as to whether it had a real but minor effect on PvE like "flash / bang" that stuns / scares mobs only for a very short duration.... or new craft plan .. say a Flail

2H Weaps - As above new Craft Plan = sansetsukon / sanjiegun (See below)

Ranged Weaps - Tracer Bullet or spound effect so you could see / hear the bullet in flight

HARVEST

1)  Knowledge 4 that let uou see how many mats ina  node.

2) Add 5 focus to each Fous credit (allowing Gentle Rate / Gentle Speed).

MAGIC

Stealing from the ole Hexen series, a spell that you could use on friend of foe that would say do something humoroes ... like give them a "Frahairdo" or make them look like the other primitive tribes for a number of seconds.   Actually don't have many ideas here but something "just for fun" would be nice.

MELEE

1H Weapons - Ability to dual wield two weapons....

(2) 1H Swords, (2) 1H Axe (2) 1H Mace - DPS capped so as not to significantly unbalance combat
1 H Spear ... 2 spears doesn't make sense
(2) 1H Staff - Doubt DPS is a concern here.

2H Weapons - Add 3 section chained staff .... sansetsukon (Japanese) or sanjiegun (Chinese)
